RE: Wayne Co TN Chancery Court Loose Records Bk J & K, Folder &, 29 pages, cause #61 (1870-79): names children and heirs of James KIDDY who died 29 Aug 1861, intestate: This is a property settlement suit later filed by the family. Children and heirsof James Kiddy, deceased: (his widow was Elizabeth KIDDY, mother of all children):
1. Amanda A. KIDDY (who married Alexander BROWN in AL,see Union,MS)
There was also some sort of legal case filed against Elizabeth Kiddy, widow of James, and Paul W. B. KIDDY, their son in Feb 1871, both were arrested and Elizabeth was over 60 years old. W. B. PARRISH, William SWEENEY and James H. BREWER agreed to a compromise and these three men paid the court costs including sheriff�s cost in the case. Jasper Kiddy also had children: Catherine Kiddy m. Alexander YOUNG in VA, Betsey Kiddy m. Henry YOUNG in VA 1795, Lewis Kiddy b: 1794 (lived & buried Giles Co TN see & Limestone Co AL). I have a lot on these families. Will of Alexander Young filed in Montgomery Co VA, lists Catherine his widow and her brother Lewis KIDDY. See below: Old Land Records of Lauderdale Co AL.

Feb 9 1835 Pete BRASJEARS, surety Basil BRASHEARS. This is a misprint, need to check records to see which spelling is correct. Personal Note: Dicey Elizabeth Brashears (who we believe was dtr of Robert Brashears) married James Hurd CRABB in Lawrence Co TN. She was his first wife and is buried in Prentiss Co MS. (See History of Prentiss Co MS). Maybe Dicey was married before James? Dicey BRASHIERS, Jan 7, 1847, James H. CRABB. Edmond Kennemer, Edmond H., July 3 1848/Jul 17 1848 Mary A. STAPELTON. Pg. 58.

Who married David GRUBBS in Oct 1869 Giles co TN, they were in Limestone Co AL in 1870 census, with Rebecca and Carmack Kiddy�s four children).
